Daily calorie intake of countries across the world revealed



The graph shows just how much the average American exceeds the recommended daily calorie intake



According to WebMD, women should consume about 2,000 calories per day while men should have no more than 2,400.

With more than a third of Americans considered obese, it's no surprise that the country has the highest calorie intake of any other in the world.

In a new infographic from health website Evoke.ie showing how much food residents of various countries eat per day, the U.S. trumps with 3,770 calories, followed closely by Austria with 3,760.

The UK comes in sixth place, with people here consuming an average daily calorie intake of 3,440.
